BBL Match 40 Adelaide Strikers v Brisbane Heat 1330hrs @ Adelaide Oval

[NYRB]

Must admit Boyce did a good con job of trying to think he was out instead of Colin de Grandhomme.

 

[Magma]

worst of all it was a simple single too.

a fitting end to a dozy batting performance

 

[gtrxuone]

Maby the Dizzy -Ken Hinkley swaps back on.lol

Classic Adelaide

Why were they even running them you needed grandhomme on strike. Crazy stuff.

I think that's where the confusion comes from, it's just he had to yell out No instead of running half way and deciding against it. Stupidity from both of them as yes CDG had to be on strike.

 

[StillAtLarge]

That's what happens when you pick a guy who can't run

Well I think that was what Col'n was thinking but Cam hadn't got that idea.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Johnson kind of looks like Cam Green with longer hair.

 

[Nathan Barley]

jeez even 10 each from head and carey and we'd be so much better placed. another really lackluster performance after good bowling. just seem to walk through the innings

Think the bowling was the issue. Too many loose deliveries from the seamers. Bazley has been far superior to any of the strikers seamers and we know the heats spinners are a couple of classes above

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Big Wes’s brave vigil comes to an end.

I said the Heat were pathetic when they batted but the Strikers have been worse, especially considering the quality of their batting line up today.

with our top 6 that 155 was doable if they batted properly. sure the bowling has been good but the tactics of this (and other) games has been confusing.

 

[largebus]

Falling short in a chase with more wickets in hand than your opponent is just pitiful.

Boyce started running when Colin wasn’t even looking at him or the ball. And he is injured. Yeah he could have said no but man just pure stupidity .

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Had enough of this gifting other teams hope.

Think we’re here again on Friday??

 

[Magma]

quintessentially redbacks that

 

[Aussie_boy]

0-4 vs Heat and Stars. Say no more. If people cared about this comp then Dizzy would be under the pump.

 

[largebus]

2 teams with winning records and a load of dross

 

[SSwans2011]

The sleeping Brisbane Heat giant has been woken. Watch out BBL.

 

[Redline]

Still can't beleive Lynn played out a maiden facing Spencer Johnson. Terrible chase

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Luckily for Adelaide one of their two competent t20 bats leaves now too!

Head and Carey were hopeless

 

[FutureShock]

The Strikers may be a manufactured franchise, but they epitomise SA teams: mediocre, content just to participate, do the same thing every year for the same results, attract no real scrutiny or accountability. 36ers, Reds, Redbacks(ha ha!), both AFL sides...all basically the same and clueless about how to build a genuinely successful club.

That's probably because the same people are in charge of both - Nielsen and Gillespie. The SACA Board continue to reward failure and ineptitude. Need a big clean out of both however Gillespie has been gifted a 2-year extension for the Redbacks so probably will be given the same at the Strikers.
